Clinton wasn't asleep at the switch. He didn't care about the looming danger to this country. Any shrink worth his/her diploma would tell you Clinton is a sociopath who lacks normal feelings of empathy toward others. He's extremely clever, as many sociopaths are, and hides this flaw most of the time. Occasional failures: see Ron Brown's funeral pics, Juanita Broderick's rape and aftermath. Clinton is a narcissist, too. He sees the world through a prism of self interest, as if he's wearing blinders. He suffered a huge p.r. failure with Somalia and thereafter was loathe to use the military for anything but dropping a few bombs or shooting missiles at desert tents. So he was extremely reluctant to do anything meaningful, like seizing bin Laden and putting a stop to Al Qaeda. As a result Americans were murdered by the thousands.
He had the colossal gall to tell assembled Rwandans, at the end of his presidency, while Air Force One, engines still running, sat on the tarmac, that he'd never been told genocide had been taking place in their country. Bald-faced lies, the bible that got bigger every time he showed up in church...in the midst of impeachment hearings. The list is endless. Suffice it to say that constant fawning by the MSM
over Clinton is sickening. The truth is we're very lucky we survived 8 years of Clinton in the WH.

Lucky, or blessed by God.
I'm still *quite* worried about nuclear secrets and
guidance systems to China;
proliferation (no, NOT pro-lifer-ation; that's another thread) to North Korea;
obvious ability of all countries to inflitrate the National Laboratories;
etc.
Anyone remember the Wen Ho Lee affair?
I suspect the "racism" charge was a clever ruse by
the Clintons as the only way to defuse the investigation.
It'd be the perfect PC cover.
And the *best part* is, whether Lee was guilty, or just
an innocent scapegoat to take the heat off of others, once the PC police got involved from the racism, things tended
to die off. . .
No, Clinton was worse than that. He thought he could appease them by giving them air support so they could conquer parts of Yugoslavia. Anyone wonder where the Beslan murderers got their NATO-issue fatigues?
